Ghanaian forward Tanko Mohammed has revealed his biggest regret in his playing career.
The enterprising forward is currently without a club as he focuses on unearthing talents for the country.
In an interview with Sylvester Ntim of Aben FM in Koforidua, the former Medeama, Great Olympics and Aduana Stars striker disclosed he made money in the game but suddenly lost everything due to his inability to stay focused.
“I made money in football but unfortunately for me, I lost everything because I didn’t adhere to advice from people. I spent money lavishly, I’m being real so the upcoming footballers can learn something out of it”
“But I give thanks to God because I wouldn’t have learnt my lesson if I hadn’t gone through such life. I learnt a lot of things from the life I was living at the time”
“There are a lot of things I couldn’t do in the game but what I regret most was not adhering to advice from good friends and relatives. My name became a household name in the country. I was living a good life then; I had my car so I moved to places to enjoy myself. I had my belongings at times in my car but when I started losing some meaningful things in life, I became focused,” he said.
Tanko Mohammed disclosed he has not called it a quit and has promised to return to the pitch.
